meeble mail is live!...

Last year at SURTEX I met a cute bubbly woman who was really excited about my work, but wanted to discuss the details of her project at a later date.  I thought ok, cool, and made sure to follow up with her after the show.  Soon after we started communicating and she told me all about her exciting new project called Meeble Mail.

If you are like most people today, you send hundreds of emails in the course of on month.  Maybe more?  I love that the Meeble Mail creators have thought to make this experience personal and pretty!  Meeble Mail is personalized stationery for your email.  How brilliant is that?!  A whole range of my work is available now! I will also be adding more fresh designs very soon! Run over and check it out and brighten up you email!  :-)

meeble mail is live!...

How much email do you view everyday? I bet quite a few, and the number seems to be growing everyday. So...why not make it fun and pretty? That's what the girls over at Meeble Mail thought, and of course I agree! I am so happy to announce my partnership with Meeble Mail and that the site is now live! This launch is so fitting as I actually met the creators of Meeble Mail last year at SURTEX.  I am also proud to say, I am in some really amazing company including Trina Turk, Hammocks and High Tea, and Thomas Paul!! For the launch they are offering all the stationery for FREE for the entire month of MAY! Go check out the site and add a bit of pretty to your email love notes! :)

new products for gina b designs

New products are here!  These are some of the products available now from Gina B Designs!  Aren's they fun!  You may recognize this first print from the Greenwich Gardens Collection.  It is always so great when the collections you love find a home!

more tiny prints - moving anyone??...

More work for Tiny Prints is popping up on the site!  I started sending designs last summer, and lots of things are finally rolling out!  Such is the life of a licensed artist.  You have to get used to understanding product cycles.  Tiny Prints is actually super quick, but some categories can take months or even years for the product to get to market.   However, it is always really exciting to see.  These are offered as magnets instead of cards which is always a great moving reminder for friends and family.

find me on etsy too (and a treat to celebrate!)...

Hi all! Can you believe January is almost over already??  CRAZY!  Well after years (literally) of inner debate, I have decided to open an etsy shop.  It is small for now, and will grow organically over time.  Part of my plan for this year is to begin exploring different sides of my creative voice.  I have always loved the etsy community, and thought I would give it a try.  Pop over and check it out will you?  So...how about a sale to get things started?  Use the code NewAdventures to get 20% off thru Tuesday at midnight! My online shop here has everything available on etsy as well, AND includes my photos (easier b/c of all the different sizes).

more love for tiny prints!...

Three of my designs are available on Valentine's Day cards for Tiny prints!  Click on the images to check out the cards, which you can personalize btw!  Hooray!  I am especially excited to see this first image find a home.  It's one of my all-time favorites!  This print is also available in two sizes in my shop.  Frame it up, and it is the perfect sweet addition to any room.  Celebrate love everyday!!  Also available is this Valentine's party invite!

wedding invites for tiny prints...

Thankfully, Spring will soon be upon us.  That means one thing...WEDDINGS!  Here's my latest wedding invite for Tiny Prints! Comes in three pretty colorways.

HGTV and me!...

About a month ago I was approached by the wonderful Lana Kole to contribute to an HGTV.com article.  Of course I immediately said yes, and then I asked what the article was about.  :0)  The article is called Decorating for Winter with Textiles, and it is up... NOW! Big thank you to Lana for inviting me, and for putting together a great piece!

Mon Sheri Giveaway!

I have a fat quarter of Mon Sheri left from the wonderful samples made by my friend over at Hey Baby Studio!  It's lonely, and needs to find a home!  This collection was named after my constant inspiration my mom, Sheri, so I hope you love it as much as I do!

Two new fabric collections!

Hi all!  I'm back from Quilt Market!  It was tons of fun!  I was thrilled to make some of my twitter friends into real life friends!  Finally got to meet Daisy Janie (who's booth was amazing btw) and Jenean Morrison.  I also met some great new friends Marisa from Creative Thursday, Betz White, Lizzy House, and Melody Miller, Lindsay and Charlie from Hawthorne Threads, Cynthia from Fabricworm and Birch, and Kim from True Up.  I even had a moment to chat with Amy Butler!  Full weekend - let me tell you, but so so much fun!  So...want to see the two new collections I presented with Anthology??  Come on, sure you do!  ;0)

First up, Bryant Park in three colorways - Yacht, Terre, and Balkans!



This collection was inspired by the spirit of Bryant Park in NYC.  Although, the shows are no longer held there, we will always remember Bryant Park as a destination where beauty, creativity, and innovation were celebrated.  I wanted to mix vintage overtones with modern shapes, and use color in a fresh new way.  Hope you heart it!





Next up Theory in three ways - Seaside, Sierra, and Forest



Theory was all about trying something new.  Mixing and matching traditional and modern elements and seeing what came out.  It was my theory really of what a new look for home, fashion, and craft could be.
